Question

i just want to verify i solved this correctly. for the energy diagram i had HOMO as E2 and LUMO as E3. For the pi bond energy i ended up getting Eπ = 3 alpha + 2 beta + square root 2 beta

1. Using Hückel Molecular Orbital theory for cyclooctatetraene2 (CaHe2: a. Show an energy level diagram for C3Hs2 with all of the possible energy levels in the pi bond system, and indicate the positions of the HOMO and LUMO. b. Calculate the pi bond energy for C3H8.
